Amateur value investor looking for bargains in any market, with a focus on emerging markets. He admires big investors like Li Lu and Peter Lynch, and isn't afraid to go against the grain. He is willing to buy any company at the right price and looks for low-risk, high-uncertainty bets. My purpose is to share investment ideas and clarify my own thinking. It is good to keep an investment journal to monitor past successes and learn from failures. This is a good way to keep a scorecard and make my ideas public so everyone can judge them. It mainly adopts an owner mentality and largely ignores the noise of the macro environment. I am an investor, not an economist. Investors make money, economists make forecasts. In my economic thinking, I am strongly influenced by the work of Henry Hazlitt, Friedrich Hayek and Ludwig Von Mises. I recently came across a legendary book, 'Economics in One Lesson' and it blew me away. I have never seen such clear and logical economic thinking in a concise format before. In the future, readers will be able to see a more Austrian economic way of thinking in my articles. Graduate of NYU Stern, with a Bachelor's Degree in Business and a concentration in Finance.
